Izegwe, acting general officer
commanding 7th division of the Nigerian Army, has told operatives of
the Nigerian Security and Civil Defense Corps, to use only one bullet to kill their suspects.
Speaking during the weapon handling and proficiency
training for the civil defense corps operatives, Izegwe said that “the essence
of military marksmanship was not to use multiple rounds of ammunition to kill a
single target”.
His words: “Always ensure that only one bullet
goes to the enemy that it is aimed at, since we d not want you to use 20 rounds
in killing a suspect or somebody who is tampering with our national assets.”
The training
is being carried out nationwide following a federal government’s directive that
the NSCDC should begin to carry arms like other paramilitary sister services.
Chief of
Army Staff, Lieutenant General Tukur
Buratai, okayed the training opportunity for the civil police officers
nationwide.
